Cheyne has been played on NTS in shows including Bump City w/ Billy Goods , featured first on 20 March 2016. Songs played include Call Me Mr. 'Telephone'.

Cheyne is the stage name of Cheyne Coates (born 6 September 1970, in Melbourne) an Australian dance music and pop singer, best known for her work in Madison Avenue. Madison Avenue is best known for their international hit song "Don't Call Me Baby", which went to the top of the Australian singles charts in 1999 and to the top of the UK singles and Billboard dance charts in 2000.

Before joining Madison Avenue, Cheyne was working as a choreographer and singer in Melbourne. Cheyne met producer and writer Andy Van in a dance club. Van was the founder of the Vicious Vinyl record label and had remix credits for Tina Arena and CDB. Van had also won an ARIA award for his production work on "Coma" by Pendulum.

The duo started working together mainly as writers and producers in 1988. Their first single "Fly" featured Kellie Wolfgram as the vocalist. However, Cheyne sang on the group's breakthrough single "Don't Call Me Baby" because Andy Van liked her version initially used as the guide track for the intended singer. Van took the song to the MIDEM Conference leading to the band being signed by Virgin Records in the UK and Sony Music for the rest of the world.

"Don't Call Me Baby" proved to be a massive hit for Madison Avenue, topping the Australian charts in 1999. It led to the duo releasing the album Polyester Embassy, which spawned three further singles.

In 2002, Cheyne married and had a child called Liberty, but the following year she parted ways with Van and started work on her debut solo album with Brian Canham, formerly of Australian synth pop band Pseudo Echo, and Ewen McArthur. In 2003, she also founded the record label Aperitif.

Cheyne's first single, "I've Got Your Number", was reminiscent of "Don't Call Me Baby" and reached #15 on the Australian singles charts in 2004 as well as being added to the playlist on BBC Radio 1. Her second single, "Taste You", also reached the top 100 in July 2004.

Following the release of the club stomper "Taste You", Cheyne released her debut album Something Wicked This Way Comes. It featured an eclectic mix of chill-out, dance, jazz and pop music. It includes the track "Femininity" which could easily be seen as an homage to her days in Madison Avenue, while "I Don't Do Nice" is reminiscent of tracks on Madonna's "American Life" album.

Her next feature was as vocalist on a funky track called "Lucky" by Canadian duo The Sound Bluntz. This single was released in July 2006 and the album Blame The Bling was released in Canada in October 2006 and globally in early 2007.
